Operatives of the Ogun security network, also known as the Amotekun Corps, have arrested a 45-year-old man, Gbenga Ogunfadeke, for allegedly chaining and locking his two children in solitary confinement which led to their death.
Mr David Akinremi, the State Commander of the Amotekun Corps, disclosed this in a statement issued in Abeokuta.
Akinremi explained that the suspect was arrested on Tuesday, April 18 in Ibiade, Ogun Waterside Local Government Area of the state by men of the corps.
His arrest came after his ex-wife filed a complaint. According to the statement, the suspect, a father of three, accused his children of stealing.
Akinremi said the suspect was alleged to have chained and locked the children in solitary confinement without food and water for over three months which led to the death of two of the children.
He stated that the corps gathered that the suspect had been maltreating the children aged 16, 17 and 18 since he took custody of them following his crashed marriage with their mother, Busola Otusegun.
